There is a world somewhere between reality and fiction. Although ignored by many, it is very real and so are those living in it. This forum is about the natural world. Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.
Disagree with the post. I think they'll have better chance to become pride males in Kruger. And all the prides (except Tsalala) have cubs or potentially cubs on the way.
The problem is they may disappear like many other lion that go into Kruger but they’re older than 3 othawa boys that went missing and talamati males brother that went missing and many others

And yeah. It will be a while before Sabi Sands has space for another coalition. So its good to see one leaving on their own.
True but we haven’t seen the plains camp young male in months he could be alive but he also might not be unfortunately we just don’t know and won’t know… buuut the less nomads the better even tho those two didn’t bother anyone

Agree, no future for them in Sabi Sands, all coalitions thera are in their primes.
Oldest, Ndhzengas, just turned 9 not long ago, in theory they can also go for years (NK is only ~ 1 year younger than Ndhzengas).
Hi good point. Ndhzenga male lions may surprise by staying longer with Kambula lionesses. If they have more cubs Kambula lionesses. I wonder if a very big pride will be in Kambula. I wonder when young male lions would leave?
If Kambula lionesses have more cubs. Kambula lionesses are with Ndhzenga male lions, and would help Ndhzenga male lions. I was also thinking the young male lions in kambula what happens if they do not leave soon? If young male lions stay another year they will be three or around three. Would they help Ndhzenga male lions if they stay? I think Ndhzenga male lions may chase older five or six, because it is too many.

I think u might be on about the Okavango Delta lions, it’s said because of the abundance of water, the amount of swimming they do strengthens their core that much more. I, personally, found the Botswana lions I do know of, seemingly more impressive than anywhere else. No idea how they’d compare to KNP / Masai Mara lions in terms of size, I doubt they’re that much bigger anyways.

I agree, I’d imagine it’s easier to expand the coalition too, if that’s something they’d look towards.
3 females and 7 Young males, the Young males were pushed back and everyone ended up giving up and leaving, after this they were seen in kruger boundary with buffelshoek

So we have 8-10 sub males in Kambula pride, and 7 sub males in Torchwood pride.
They should be roughly around same age if im not mistaken (born thru 2022).
Was wondering the same thing, when I saw this, if perhaps Nkuhuma and Khanya were pushed into Kruger by the Gijimas, and if the Gijimas perceive them enough of a threat as to follow them to such lengths.
